| Description (summary) | 2009-09-14 | cJC | The second apron was built to mimic the first apron, after the first apron and the revetment wall had been covered. It is built up limestone blocks and displays a similarity to the first apron in style. It is dated to the Mittani based on Mittani deposits that run under it. The second apron is part of the Mittani reenvisioning of the sacral area after the first apron (^apr1) and the staircase (^stair2) was almost covered. [Input: T914CJC.j] |

| Options (alternatives) | 2012-05-14 | cJC | Upon further discussion during the September/October 2011 study season we decided that the assignment of the second apron to the Mittani period is not certain. See discussion on left hand side under topics for futher details. [Input: T914CJC.j] |
| 2012-10-16 | cJC | After discussion regarding the date of the second apron again in the Fall 2012 study season we again are resolved that the apron belongs in the Mittani period, specifically to the period of rebuilding and construction across the temple terrace area dated to s148J2B. See discussion under topics for full explanation of different options. [Input: T914CJC.j] |
